Example plotting following ASP Docs Section 4.1 for Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) Narrow Angle Camera (NAC)¶
Below are example asp_plot outputs following the processing in ASP Docs "Lightning Fast" example Section 4.1.
Download LRONAC data:
wget https://github.com/NeoGeographyToolkit/StereoPipelineSolvedExamples/releases/download/LRONAC/LRONAC_example.tar
tar xfv LRONAC_example.tar
Run stereo processing on a crop:
cd LRONAC_example
stereo_gui M181058717LE_crop.cub M181073012LE_crop.cub \
M181058717LE.json M181073012LE.json \
--alignment-method local_epipolar \
--left-image-crop-win 2259 1196 900 973 \
--right-image-crop-win 2432 1423 1173 1218 \
--stereo-algorithm asp_mgm --subpixel-mode 9 \
run/run
Run point2dem to produce DEM:
point2dem --auto-proj-center \
--errorimage run/run-PC.tif \
--orthoimage run/run-L.tif
